Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs in a 6-5 extra-inning victory over the New York Mets on Tuesday. Muncy hit his first homer in the first inning, a two-run shot to extend the Dodgers' lead to 4-1. His second homer was much more important, as it came with L.A. down by one in the bottom of the ninth and sent the game to extras. Muncy has been on an absolute surge at the plate lately, homering five times in his last four games and collecting 11 RBI in that stretch. Overall, Muncy has a .230 AVG and .781 OPS to go along with 19 runs, nine homers, 35 RBI, and two steals in 183 at-bats. When healthy, Muncy is still a very solid source of power and counting stats. He should be rostered in all standard-size leagues.

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy put on a show during Saturday's game against the New York Yankees. He kicked off the scoring early with an RBI single in the first inning. He followed that with a three-run home run off right-hander Will Warren in the second inning. Muncy went deep again as he blasted another three-run homer, but this time off right-hander Mark Leiter Jr. in the fifth inning. He would finish his night going 3-for-6 with two homers, seven RBI, and three runs scored in the blowout victory. Muncy doesn't offer a ton of upside, but he has the power ability to put together games like this from time to time.

Los Angeles Dodgers veteran third baseman Max Muncy launched his fourth home run of the season on Tuesday, helping the Dodgers to a 9-5 win over the Cleveland Guardians. Muncy capped the victory with a 403-foot, three-run blast in the ninth inning. The 34-year-old also added a single, finishing 2-for-4 with an additional run scored and a walk. Muncy has seen lower production than he's used to this season, slashing just .212/.337/.345 with a .682 OPS in 51 games. He will look to build on this performance and regain his usual form in a potent Dodgers lineup.
